how does the body use homeostasis (give one example)
sweating while hot
define system
a bunch of smaller part working together to for a bigger system
How is the engineering design process similar to the scientific method
They both have to do background research, build prototypes to help the problem, and both record and discuss the results.
simulation
biological imitation of a situation or process
biotic factor
living things
How is the engineering design different the scientific method
Scientific method-
State your question
Formulate your hypothesis, identify variable
design process-
Define the problem
Specify requirements
abiotic
non-living things
risks
a negative outcome that can occur

what are different the levels of organization within an organism and earth's system
organelle, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems
what is a mathematical model
the process of using various mathematical structures to represent real-world situations
